INTERNational Tea Day May 21st

April 21st is National Tea Day in the UK....

But today, May 21st is International Tea Day... so I thought I would re-post this...

I love that there are National Days revolving around something I enjoy so much.

A chart of the perfect cuppa from the Royal British Standards Institute...

And Lyons reminds us there are so many ways to drink it... black tea above...

Or maybe this chart from Yorkshire tea... :)

Some of these made me giggle...

So, what ever time it is... it's Time For Tea!

The coronavirus has changed activities for National Tea Day, but they substituted virtual "teality" tea parties. The day has a website, and you can see more of the activities online and on Facebook...

About Me

Welcome to Antiques And Teacups blog!

Hi there! I am so glad you are here! Let's have a cup of tea and talk about teacups, pretty china, afternoon tea and things we love! I am Ruth, mother of 2 grown children with their own families, and am a lifelong lover of Victoriana and taking tea...inherited from my English grandmother Emma Bridgewater...she is on the sidebar! I have been in the antiques and collectibles business since 1988 and specialize in English china, especially Shelley...something I have collected for years. You'll see a lot of it here! Can't wait to visit and share a cup of tea! My English husband and I serve the Lord Jesus, and live each day at a time. He has Parkinson's Disease, but we are thankful for each day together! 40+ years married, and hopefully lots more!
